They Will Face Murder Charges

The Marines (and one Navy sailor) who are being held in San Deigo will be facing charges in the shooting on an Iraqi man in Hamandiya.

The case relates to claims an Iraqi man was deliberately killed in Hamandiya.

It is one in a series of inquiries into the alleged abuse or killing of Iraqis by coalition forces.

Another Pentagon inquiry is looking into an alleged massacre at Haditha last November, in which 24 civilians are thought to have been killed.


For those keeping count this will make 11 soldiers brought up on charges in less than a week.
